Really surprised the Rams took him actually. Good for them though.

Konstantin posted:I'm surprised Goodell didn't do some horse trading to make sure Sam got drafted. It would have been good PR, and not getting your preferred choice of player in the 7th round is worth owing a favor to the commish when a critical player gets in a legal jam. I'm surprised no team did this on their own for the same reason. Everybody knows that these 6th/7th-round picks aren't going to make a difference to their teams, so why not take a no-impact player that's going to sell a ton of jerseys, cement your team/coach's legacy as "progressive," and get you on league higher-ups' good side? Edit: and done.

It's pretty dumb that they pick and choose which players are noteworthy enough to announce on the stage at this point. Ik deserves that honor as much as anyone else.

WeLandedOnTheMoon! posted:So I don't follow a lot of SEC college ball, but in order to win that award, don't you have to be a pretty good football player? You always hear about the pro systems and elite talent that the SEC runs with, so wouldn't that qualify him to be drafted regardless of whether he poo poo the bed in the combine? Even in the ~SEC~ (whose reputation is overblown), the quality of competition is not as high - or, more importantly, more consistently high - as it is on the next level. Things work in college that don't work in the NFL. Still, you don't luck into getting that title, and I don't think it's comparable to the high-profile Heisman failures because college QBs are much more likely to be in "gimmick" systems and not translate. I like this scouting report on Sam: http://www.sbnation.com/2014/4/18/5604464/2014-nfl-draft-michael-sam-pass-rusher-position-projections Basically, it says he has good technique and a high motor, but he probably isn't strong enough to replicate his college success in the NFL (and not athletic enough to make up for it). Nobody on day 3 is a perfect player, though, and if he gets stronger he can be a productive player.

Good. It's still pretty hosed that he fell this far. STL is a cool team and it will be fun to see if he can add to that good DL.

Just think of the hard working straight player who is denied a spot because of the gay agenda.

Him and Bradford will be BFFs and tear a path that leads to the Super Bowl (they'll lose 36-2 but it'll still be a good enough story that the movie options are sold)
